Oh Hell No

Children are in charge of the US. MAKE IT STOP.

and another thing: he’s not mad. please don’t put it in the newspaper that he got mad.

There are too many of us to ignore. #NoKings

Official count estimates are up - before it was "nearly 7m" then it was "roughly 7m" now it is officially "more than 7m." Trend is up!

There are no kings in America, and I don’t intend to bend the knee to one.

And in doing so validates every drop of today

Imagine being the largest newspaper in Washington, DC with the motto "Democracy Dies in Darkness" and thinking to publish this today.

You might think WaPo editors would look out the window and realize something more important is happening. But perhaps democracy already died over there.

No Kings, Portland, Oregon

Over 2.3 million confirmed so far and the rural wave is real. We were tracking ~3,000 events, but small towns across the country are pouring in with numbers we hadn’t included. A submission portal for city + attendance is coming soon. All counts will be double-certified before the final release.

Amazing video from Chicago today.

No Kings

Mayor Johnson: There are those in this country that have decided, at the behest of this president, to declare war on Chicago and American cities across this country. They have clearly decided that they want a rematch of the Civil War. We will not submit to the authoritarianism that is coming down.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.

Trump and the Republicans are denying you healthcare while they supply Kristi Noem with two luxury Gulfstream private jets for $172,000,000.

Facts.

I saw plenty of children and even babies in Portland Maine. Some people ask not to post their kid's pix online, so not being assholes, we comply.

After the first one, they said we were just a bunch of old people.

After the second one, they said we were domestic terrorists.

Now we’re back to being old again.

Or eliminating waste and fraud??

Coast Guard bought Kristi Noem two private jets (I guess if one breaks down). Cost: $172 million. Is that what you call draining the swamp?

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

Organizers have reported 7 million attendees at the No Kings events and we’re happy to confirm 7 million and counting! More events are still happening across the country today, so we’ll need additional time to fully certify the final numbers.

The Preamble to the Constitution began with three magic words and they were not “I, the King.”

Huge turnout and great day at No Kings in Pasadena.

Wow! Love your creativity Ocean Beach (San Francisco)!

An amazing crowd and photo.
No Kings, Denver, Colorado.

not much to argue about on this one, I guess

Why can’t every month have a No Kings Day? 😩

"If people weren't getting together, and [showing up] at this moment, we would be in big trouble."

Anyone smear their feces on the Capitol walls today?

Beat up any cops with flag poles? Use mace or bear spray on them?

At least tell me someone constructed makeshift gallows and threatened to hang the vice president?

No?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news.

Y’all suck at political discourse.
